Can I force DFS replication through a certain path?

Sceneario; College network split in two. I have a Dorm
network called Resnet and an Admin network called
Adminnet. They are seperated by a firewall - the campus is
also connected to the Internet at this firewall. Currently
all traffic between resnet and adminnet passes through
this firewall. I have a series of user home folders and a
series of "lab" folders that need to be accessible from
both networks. Piping that traffic through the firewall
doesnt work out too well so I want to put a file server on
each side of the firewall to house the data and use DFS to
replicate between the two. I would like to plug the 2
servers directly to each other using a second NIC in each
and only allow DFS replication through that link - I want
all other traffic to be forced through the firewall. Is
this possible? If so how do I configure it?
Thanks!

PS - sorry, I am cross posting several lists because Im
not sure which one is appropriate for DFS questions...
